In each of us lies a deep wisdom and innate capacity for healing. That wisdom lies within our hearts, minds and bodies. Every moment is an opportunity to explore and discover our fullest potential. The human self is not a static entity. We are always unfolding and becoming. Sometimes, trauma cuts us off from this process of unfolding. Many of us have learned habitual coping strategies in response to traumatic environments. Later in life, these strategies may become "fixed" and automatic. This can lead us to feeling constricted, limiting our capacity for connection with the world around us.

Life doesn't have to be that way. I'd love to help you re-connect with your own aliveness.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with adults, adolescents, children, and families. My work is informed by Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, an integrative model of psychotherapy that blends attachment theory, affective neuroscience, somatic approaches and short-term dynamic psychotherapies to heal trauma, awaken your most authentic self, and increase your sense of connection with others.

I specialize in working with individuals with eating disorders and have post-graduate training in this area, but I have years of experience working with clients who are struggling with a variety of different issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, domestic violence, relational difficulties, and feeling stuck or stymied.
